I finally patterned this one the other day, a Sterlingworth that I just restocked. Couldn't figure out why I couldn't hit anything with the right barrel at skeet. Left is OK, but way tight for most most things I would do with it. Both are choked about .030" (which surprised me) and both pattern decently.

At 30 yds., RIGHT barrel shoots about 7-8" LEFT of point of aim. I would probably open the right barrel to about .010" constriction.

Is there a simple repair that would take care of this? Thank you, Gil

Open the choke. For short money Mike Orlen can open and give the choke a bias to move the poi in the direction you want it...Geo

I would send it to Briley for the choke work. They have done this many times and are very good at it.
